^Very true, all the power is out in NYC right now and I'm pretty sure they won't be able to do anything for maybe a week... or two... three if the power is out. They would have to do everything out of NY which could be a bit hectic

So far the power is only out below 14th st, parts of brooklyn and queens. The VS office is in the upper part of midtown and they have power. A few agencies are below 14th st and a lot of models live downtown and in brooklyn..

Maybe they can take advantage of Kate Upton's moment and give her the opening haha

Just like Vogue Italia hopped on that wagon too hehe :p And before Im accused of anything, I dont care much about Kate but hf model is she not, luck is not hard work. She would be fine for VS though, not VSFS

I dont want to see Jessica Perez, Jessica Hart, Elyse Taylor in VSFS, their work for catalogue is so so "fillers like".

Behati does look great in that commercial.

I wouldn't exactly call Kate success and appearing in fashion magazines luck but to each his or her own. She's for an SI covergirl is doing what other SI covergirls like Marisa (late
in her career), Irina, Bar, and Brooklyn couldn't do and that's being somewhat revelant in fashion.

I don't think that it would be smart for VS to try to work with Kate Upton at this time because all she will do is tell them "heck no" and then one of her people will probably leak it to the press with a reminder of the comment one of their higher ups made about her earlier this year. To the extent anyone cares, VS has egg on its face over that comment and presumably VS wants all the attention leading up to the VSFS to be as positive as possible.

Now I can see Kate and VS working together later on down the road, especially in print.

ETA:
It looks like the Daily Mail did take the "egg on face" angle with this headline, "Take that Victoria's Secret! Kate Upton lands first ever Vogue cover, cementing her status as fashion's new 'It Girl'"link
